Baby Passport Photo and Visa Photo

The rules of a baby passport photo are fairly relaxed in most countries because it is almost impossible to get a baby under the age of one year to look at a camera, sit still long enough for a photo to be taken and have a neutral expression. There is currently no standard that is agreed upon between countries for baby pictures.
